    Then she should be home teaching her core values to her girls that show
    their ass and shake it to Rap lyrics that objectify women....
    apparently they didn't pay any attention to Michelle Obama (Mom) either.

    It seems a bit much to berate TRUMP when she didn't manage to convince
    her own POT SMOKING kids that women aren't supposed to shake their ass
    to get attention from men.

    If Mechelle Obama would quit vacationing and trying to spend tax payers
    money for her entertainment we could all take her more seriously.

    Hillary wants FREE COLLEGE for everyone... so what will they do when
    they graduate into Hillary's economy and they can't get a job to use
    that education and the regulations prevent them from starting their own business. Looks like they will be the most educated generation of
    *FOOD* *STAMP* recipients in history.

    Michelle Obama laid into Donald Trump for his lewd locker room remarks
    about women as follows: "I can't stop thinking about this. It has
    shaken me to my core in a way I could not have predicted" -- whereupon
    the White House warned Trump to not retaliate against the First Lady.


    "And the White House on Thursday advised that Trump continue to steer
    clear of the president's wife, suggesting that an unprecedented attack
    on the first lady is a surefire way for the GOP nominee's standing to
    plummet further."

    Well, Eric Schultz (and presumably Barack Obama), here is what you can
    do with your warning. Donald Trump's statements, which were probably
    empty boasts in contrast to Bill Clinton's well-known behavior, were
    indeed lewd and unacceptable. While two wrongs do not make a right,
    Michelle and Barack Obama have openly promoted rap artists who glorify misogyny, sexual objectification of women, and even date rape. That's
    right; I am indeed calling out our country's sorry excuse for a First
    Lady for her and her husband's deplorable legitimization of the most
    despicable misogynistic language on earth.

    In April 2016, the Obamas invited numerous rap artists to the White
    House to discuss Barack Obama's "My Brother's Keeper" initiative while recognizing them for their "artistic" contributions to minority
    communities. The rappers whom the Obamas promoted with these
    invitations include:
    •Rick Ross's, "U.O.N.E.O." glorifies date rape with the lyrics, "Put
    molly all in her champagne/ She ain't even know it / I took her home
    and I enjoyed that/ She ain't even know it." While Ross denies that
    this was his intended meaning, "molly" is slang for Ecstasy, a well-
    known date rape drug, and the context of "molly" in his lyrics shows
    clearly that a man put it into a woman's drink without her knowledge or
    consent so he could have sex with her. Ross' "Same Hoes" is meanwhile
    not about agricultural implements as shown by its lyrics, which consist primarily of the F word, a variant of the N word, and "hoes."
    •Common, whose "Go!" includes, "And a ooh baby she liked it raw and
    like rain when she came it poured" along with a variant of the N word
    and even more sexually explicit lyrics.
    •Jay Z, who proclaims, "I've got 99 problems and a b***h ain't one."
    •Michelle Obama called out Trump's remarks with the words, "What
    message are our little girls hearing about who they should look like,
    how they should act?" Nicki Minaj, another rapper whom she and her
    husband brought to the White House, answers that question in "Hey
    Mama," "Make sure mama crawls on her knees keep him pleased rub him
    down be a lady and a freak" and also "Yes I do the cooking/ Yes I do
    the cleaning/ Yes I keep the nana real sweet for your eating/ Yes you
    be the (boss) yes I be respecting." It doesn't take a feminist to
    dismiss these words as belonging in a fundamentalist "Islamic" country, assuming that they ever belonged anywhere at all.
    •Lifezette.com adds, "And of course, who could forget about the Obamas'
    cozy relationship with Jay Z and Beyoncé, who have been guests of the
    president and first lady on multiple occasions?" Jay Z joined Beyoncé
    in "Drunk in Love". The lyrics include, "Slid the panties right to the
    side/ Ain`t got the time to take drawers off" and "We sex again in the
    morning, your breasteses [sic] is my breakfast."
    •Beyoncé's "Partition" includes far cruder and more explicit language,
    whose sole redeeming virtue is to remind everybody that Hillary's
    husband actually did what Donald Trump talked about. "He popped all my
    buttons and he ripped my blouse/
    He monica-lewinski'd all on my gown," to which she adds, "Hand prints
    and good grips all on my ass." Beyoncé is certainly No Angel as shown
    by this line: "First, both of my legs go back on your head/ And
    whatever you want, yeah baby I'll bet it comes true."

    The phrase, "Right message, wrong messenger" applies perfectly here.
    While Donald Trump's previous statements were crude, coarse, and lewd,
    nobody who promotes and mainstreams misogyny, subservience of women,
    and date rape has the moral standing to condemn them. Michelle Obama's
    words also come across as an obviously partisan attack noting her total
    silence on Bill Clinton's misogyny and sexual exploitation of women, as
    well as Hillary Clinton's complicity in the same.
